hi.
last season whilt in the park my thumb got a repetative beating. It swelled up to enormous proportions when i gave it a whack and would really hurt. but the pain would stop realtivly quickly. But it meant that it was really delicate for weeks afterwards.
I didnt bend it back its more on top of the 2nd joint. and it REALLY hurts when i try to close my thumb into a fist.
has anyone heard of this and if so could you please give me some advise it would be much appreciated.
Cheers. Rich

Just use medical tape. And tape it up so when your thumb gets hit it won't move. Your thumb needs about a month to heal otherwise it'll just get worse and worse and it'll take longer to heal.

I busted my thumb last winter on a rail doing a Busch Can Slide, and now I seem to bust it up all the time! It sucks, had to tape it for quite awhile!
lanemeyers your looking for chicks on a male dominated web site, you might have better luck picking up some scrump if you skied.
p.s. I don't usually say things like that but come on you want girls, go to a bar or something not a damn ski site. By the way p----- isn't really like warm apple pie, someday you just might find that out.

go to the doctors soon and get an x-ray. i repeatedly banged up my left thumb for the last couple of seasons. it hurts to bend it into a fist just like you, but i went to the doctor and he said there was nothing he could do and i was going to have to live with it. it really fucking sucks.
